Another challenging week at Elinor with a rod average of 2.5.
The wind has been changing direction almost daily with a huge variation in temperature. Fishing has been particularly tough on windy days for both boat and bank anglers.
Best methods have been cdc dries, damsel booby with diawl bach and crunchers on dropper or a lure pulled back just under the surface.
On warmer days there have been damsels hatching and during the evening there are finally a good number of sedges as well as tiny buzzers.
Hopefully a double stocking this week will liven up the residents!
